This one really requires more than a one-line explanation because the
one liner doesn't really describe what you've done.

It looks like the description should be:

Only the SLI rev 4 card has a host reset capability, so only activate it
in the host template for that card.

Which leads me to two questions:

     1. Is the if condition the right way around?  It seems from the
        previous code that SLI rev < 4 do support a host reset handler.
        At the very least, if the if clause is correct, explain how it
        relates to 27b01b8 [SCSI] lpfc 8.3.31: Fixed system crash due to
        not providing SCSI error-handling host reset handler.
     2. Is this only a problem of SLI rev 4, so == is justified, or
        should it be 4 and above?

James
